This 19th-century anonymous design for a clock features an elaborate Rococo style with three cherubs holding birds on each side of a central clock face. The gold and blue color scheme evokes a sense of luxury and sophistication, typical of this period's decorative arts. The detail of the clock face, the cherubs, and the ornate carvings indicate a highly skilled craftsmanship. The work, which is housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, exemplifies the enduring allure of Rococo design.
